[QUOTE="Rclinftl, post: 5099587, member: 78249"]here is another blurb - this one from the Red Wing Collectors Society "Red Wing did not produce any pottery for Boystown, in Omaha. They had their own shop where the children learned the pottery trade. They have roots from Muncie Pottery, one of their main people left and started up the pottery at Boystown. A lot of the glazes are similar to Muncies." the pottery was made by the boys in Boys Town - the souvenir stickers were added because the pottery was sold in the gift shop to tourist - a lot of pottery companies added stickers to the wares after production like Camark - Roseville - etc... so it still makes me wonder why it is ignored by collectors,,, [ATTACH=full]414310[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]414311[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]414312[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]414313[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
